Use of an ionic liquid in a two-phase system to improve an alcohol dehydrogenase catalysed reductionElectronic supplementary information (ESI) available: experimental section. See http://www.rsc.org/suppdata/cc/b4/b401065e/

Abstract
Due to favourable partition coefficients the highly enantioselective reduction of 2-octanone, catalysed by an alcohol dehydrogenase from Lactobacillus brevis, is faster in a biphasic system containing buffer and the ionic liquid [BMIM][(CF3SO2)2N] compared to the reduction in a biphasic system containing buffer and methyl tert-butyl ether.
